Quoted from MustangPaul:Welcome to Pimside. I can see you've been in the hobby for a while. How did you hear of Pinside?
Been collecting for about 10 yrs. I can't remember where or when I first heard of Pinside. I've known about it for a long time, just never posted before today.
Quoted from foobeer:I often like to use the photos in this thread to show my wife and say “see, at least I’m not as bad as this guy”
Yeah, that's what I've been doing for years too!
Quoted from Mopar:That's a very nice mess up. Tape on the floor=Dart Machine?
Thank you! And yes, green is for dart board regulation distance and blue line for 6 year old distance.

Question for everyone who has painted their ceilings black: What did you do with the fiberglass insulation out by your rim joist? Paint it? Cover it? Change to some other kind of insulation?

Quoted from ROMM:I think arcades (and blacklights in them, especially carpets) are cool as hell. This whole thread is dedicated to creating an experience of when we were young. I thought what punkin wrote was just absurd and I was responding to it. When I was 14, the year was 1987, and arcades were awesome. Fucking crazy what that dude punkin said.
I would take the comment with a grain of salt. He doesn't like action figures or basements either.

If you had F-14 instead of Operation Thunder you'd have pretty much all the pins with rotating lights. Then the trick would be to get them all going at the same time.
Nice collection!
Quoted from Days:Hell o my fiends! It's Sun Day, it's time to make a little update of my atonement room!
here's today's video, in the corner there is a Kat Walk C2, a Megatouch and a Pashinslot in case you want to know the name of the machines
Still too much to do, still need to make the furniture for the bar corner, install decoration, install some more leds etc.
If you want to see how it started and the evolution, i created a thread here:

Feel free to take a look and leave a comment of what you think about the evolution
Cheers!
Nice game room.
Just curious, does "atonement" mean something different in French than it does in English?

Quoted from ramegoom:I have removed the connection to the tilt bobs on ALL of my pins. You can't tilt them if you tried.
I've been a hard-core habitual nudger since I was 12 years old, and when I get the machines going, they lose their spot in the lineup, wind up several inches away from where they belong.
The nudging....just can't seem to stop.

I've seen widebodies before, but where'd you get those longbodies?

Quoted from ramegoom:When it comes time to install electrical, be sure to add way too many outlets. You will never have enough. Put them in the ceiling as well. My room has 107 electrical outlets, and I wish I'd have installed more, since everything tends to move. I put outlets at 48 in. off the ground where the pins are, so you don't see the cords. Also, adding neon signs makes a clean install when an outlet is behind the sign. Think ahead, then over-do it. You won't regret it.
That's a lot of outlets! Are they duplex? Most codes allows for 10 duplex outlets max for each 20 amp circuit, so 107 outlets would require 11 circuit breakers. Not everyone has that much extra space in their breaker box to just add as many as possible and meet code requirements.

Quoted from waltrr:Hey Gang,
I have a question about new game room lighting, my existing Game room has track lighting with 8' ceilings, due to the ability to aim them, they work great.
Now I'm in the process of building a 1,350 sq ft. addition to my house for game room #2, but with vaulted ceilings in this one, 300sq of that will be a workshop, but now thinking about can lighting this time. but worried about light reflection in the pin glass, what do you think.
Thanks
Walt
The ideal place for cans is about a foot behind where the player would stand while playing.
If you have a vaulted ceiling the eyeball trims are better than the vaulted ceiling cans in my opinion, and most brands of eyeballs will tilt straight with up to a 6/12 pitched ceiling. Keep in mind if you have scissor trusses, the interior pitch will be less than the exterior pitch.
Quoted from mbeardsley:It's the "ultra-widebody" and "superlong" Monster Bashs that amaze me...
Right? Is that Monster Bash AI generated?
